going to be pulling the 5305s out and putting my 6" springs in. Then bringing front down another 1/2 inch. Need to order new 295 35 24s also

 

[NORCAL SS]

My 5305s are for sale 150 shipped.

My escalade rides so much better on my 6 inch drop springs. Just a lot more smoother I knew I should have done this months ago.

How can u fit a 35 with a 6" spring an i can only fit a 30?

 

[NORCAL SS]

due to me having autoride it will not come down the full amount Also the rear doesnt matter on the trucks its the front. Ive done 305 35 24 on a full drop but you will need the spohn upper/lower/panhard bar becuse the tires get sucked to far forward and rub.

Right now I just have to adjust the autoride links the ride is better with my springs and I think I will leave it where its at for now and wear out the tires. Im debating on just replacing the rear belltech kit with my springs since rides a lot smoother. GOing for a ride with 6 people today to the street races at 2pm and everyone besides me is over 225 pounds so ill see hot it does.
